Mail Settings
To configure the Self Service Portal for outbound email, the following information has to be entered in the General Setting email sections.
Max # of persons records in search: Set the maximum number of persons you like to receive listed when searching for persons. When this setting is too high, it may take long time to load the list of persons in case of poor filter conditions.
Minimum # of characters to enter in global search: The search box in the header will only start a search when the number of characters set in this field have been typed as search criteria. This option can be useful to improve performance.
Show search box on every page: When enabled, the search box in the header is available. When disabled the header does not contain a search box.
Show search link in navigation: When enabled, the links at the bottom will include a search link
Local Path to the SSP UserFiles Directories: Use the button "Resolve directories" once after installation, to let SSP know where to find the SSP files on the local drive. This option is used to find uploaded documents and images when on the local server the global DNS name is not available.
Public URL to SSP Site: URL that users normally access to get to SSP. This setting is used when sending links to SSP in for example email messages.
Local URL to SSP Site: URL that the server can use to find SSP modules on the server. You can leave this empty in case the server can access in the same way as public users.
Load balancer URLs To SSP Site
(Used by each node to connect to all other nodes, to clear cache): This is a list of URLs to the root of the SSP Web Site (1 URL per line). It should point to the parent directory of the common and forms directories. Leave empty if no load balancer in place.
Address book parameter: Select the datastore parameter you would like to use as address book. Address book is used in Workflows to set commonly used fixed actors.
Address book name field: Select the field from the parameter selected under "Address book parameter" that contains the e-mail address of a person
Filter person search in public: Select the columns on which the list of persons should be filtered, when searching for persons by non-admin users in the public part of SSP. You can select multiple fields. The persons in the search results will have the same value in the selected fields as the currently logged in person.
Base style on this user attribute: You can make the stylesheet used depended on a person property field. By default de customer.css file is used. In case this option is enable, the system will try to find the css file called customer_.css. When found, it will be used.
Wysiwyg Editor skin: Select the skin in which the HTML editor is shown
Wysiwyg relative upload path: Select the path where uploaded files in the HTML editor should be stored. *Allowed upload extensions: Select the attachment types allowed to upload within forms and workflow steps.
Maximum allowed upload file size (MB): Set the maximum size of attachments uploaded
Disable cleanup of filenames on upload: By default SSP removes spaces from file names and replaces them with underscores. Enable this option to use the original file names.
Extra scripts in bottom: Javascripts placed here will be included on all SSP pages. Use the setting on the dashboard tab to only include scripts on the dashboard page.
Please note that in order to send e-mail messages out, a task should be configured and scheduled.
